Our Programme
Our online tutoring programme has been designed and created by our amazing team here at Club 11 Plus. Between us, we have a wealth of 11 Plus tutoring experience, as well as skills in online course design, and an impressive knowledge of all the subjects included in the 11 Plus test. Put simply, not only are we experts, we are the very epitome of 11 Plus geeks!
Here at Club 11 Plus, we know that motivation is the key to education, so our aim is to inject a bit of our own quirky humour into all our lessons and quizzes, to keep our students wanting more, and we always offer a 1-week FREE TRIAL, so you can get a feel for our unique style before paying a penny!
Teaching + Practice = Success!
Unlike most other 11 Plus websites that only offer quizzes, we provide a complete tutoring solution, providing lessons on every Maths, English and Verbal Reasoning 11 Plus topic, followed by quizzes to allow students to practise their new skills. With hundreds of lessons and quizzes available, your child will be able to learn and then fully embed all the skills they need to face the 11 Plus test with confidence. Most of our students use Club 11 Plus instead of a one-to-one tutor, but many others choose to use it as homework between their one-to-one tutoring sessions. Our flexible approach allows you to choose what's right for your child.
Study Anytime, Anywhere!
We've designed our programme to fit seamlessly into your busy lives. Available either on a desktop computer, or on a tablet or phone via our awesome App, your child can study our 11 Plus lessons and quizzes wherever they are, whenever they choose, at whatever speed best suits them.
At only £19.99 per month, we're a fraction of the cost of one-to-one tutors, and unlike one-to-one tutors, we're available 24/7!

Based on the GL Assessments
While grammar schools can pick whatever 11 Plus test they want to use, these days most choose to use the GL assessments, so we've chosen to base our lessons and quizzes on the GL curriculum. Our team of Club 11 Plus boffins and geeks have analysed all the most up to date GL assessment material and have designed our programme so that every topic is covered in the lessons, and then practised repeatedly in the quizzes. If you child is going to be taking a test that isn't based on the GL assessments, you can rest assured that the Club 11 Plus programme will still be incredibly useful preparation. If you're not sure what style of test your child will be taking, have a look at the website for their chosen school, which should give full details of the subjects tested and the examination board they've chosen to use.
Multiple-Choice Format
All our quizzes have been created with a multiple choice format, just like the GL 11 Plus tests, so your child will get plenty of practice answering questions that are virtually identical to the real thing. Our team of boffins has made sure that our mountain of quiz questions, which grows bigger by the day, covers every type of Maths, English or Verbal Reasoning question that has ever been set in a GL paper, so your child will be fully prepared to do their very best on test day.
What Subjects Do We Cover?
Club 11 Plus has been running for many years in the Bournemouth and Poole area, on the beautiful south coast, coaching thousands of children through their 11 Plus tests, helping them gain places at our four excellent local grammar schools. The grammar schools in Bournemouth and Poole only require children to sit tests in Maths, English and Verbal Reasoning, so our lessons and quizzes already comprehensively cover all the topics needed for those three subjects.
But our Club 11 Plus admin team keep telling us about all the emails they get from parents in other areas, wanting us to expand our programme to include Non-Verbal Reasoning as well! And your wish is our command! Our team of Club 11 Plus boffins and geeks are currently creating an impressive array of Non-Verbal Reasoning lessons and quizzes, which we'll be adding to our website in the spring of 2025.

Maths
The GL 11 Plus Maths test consists almost entirely of word problems, covering a wide variety of topics, most of which your child will have covered in school by the end of Year 5, but some of which, such as algebra, or conversion of squared units, may well be new to them. At Club 11 Plus, we have divided the topics into 23 separate Modules, each of which consists of a series of lessons and subject quizzes, full of word problems just like the ones in the real test. We then provide a series of mixed quizzes, so your child will be fully prepared when it comes to test day.
English
The GL 11 Plus English test consists of a comprehension, followed by a spelling test, a punctuation test, and a test where children have to fill in blanks with the correct word or words, which tests their use of language. At Club 11 Plus, we have plenty of bitesize, short and full-length comprehensions, as well as four Modules, each consisting of multiple lessons and quizzes, and which cover all the relevant aspects of grammar, punctuation, spelling, and use of language. (For example, should we have put a comma before the "and" at the end of that last sentence? Many people think you shouldn't, but actually, it's entirely optional - it's called the Oxford comma, and we quite like it!)
Verbal Reasoning
The GL 11 Plus Verbal Reasoning test consists of questions involving words, letters, numbers and codes, in a wonderful combination that our boffins at Club 11 Plus never tire of, but which can be a bit overwhelming for a child who hasn't come across anything like them before! Our geeks have analysed all the GL practice papers and come up with 20 different question types, a selection of which come up in each paper. We have created 20 Modules, one for each question type, and each with a series of lessons, along with plenty of quizzes, where your children will have fun cracking codes, spotting number sequences, finding hidden words, and solving all sorts of weird and wonderful word and number puzzles. Verbal Reasoning is an area where practice can make a massive difference to a child's speed and accuracy, and we're happy to offer them all the practice they'll ever need!
Non-Verbal Reasoning
The GL 11 Plus Non-Verbal Reasoning test consists of questions involving codes, shapes, patterns and sequences. Our boffins have analysed all the GL practice papers and come up with just 6 different question types, a selection of which come up in each paper. Many schools don't choose to include Non-Verbal Reasoning questions in their test, so we've left this topic until last in our course development. Right now, our course creation experts are beavering away putting the finishing touches to the hundreds of lessons and quizzes that will be added to our website in late spring 2025, so in plenty of time for your child to prepare for their test if they're taking it in the autumn, but if you'd rather wait until we've added Non-Verbal Reasoning before joining us, maybe sign up to our newsletter, so we can let you know when we're all ready to go!
